 Shock poll: 4 out of 5 U.S. adults experience poverty, joblessnessBy J. D. Heyes, August 1 2013
(NaturalNews) It is a sad, shocking statistic that demands answers, though you shouldn't expect any soon from a government whose power-mad leaders are preoccupied with issues the vast majority of us care nothing about.
However bad you thought the U.S. economy to be, a new survey performed exclusively for The Associated Press found that it is much, much worse than we are being led to believe.
According to data compiled during the most recent AP-GfK poll, an astounding four out of five Americans...
 Are chemical imbalances really to blame for psychological distress?By Zack Blake, August 1 2013
(NaturalNews) Imagine waking up one morning to find your kitchen sink overflowing onto the kitchen floor. What would rational friends think if your response were to order a daily truckload of mops as a remedy to keep the floor dry, as opposed to turning off the faucet? As it turns out, using psychiatric medication to treat psychological disorders may make just as much sense. That's because psych meds address chemical imbalances (symptoms) rather than "shutting off the sink faucet."
Though modern...

(NaturalNews) The more progressive side of modern medicine is quickly learning that the root cause of many contemporary illnesses is none other than chronic inflammation, a lingering immune response caused by poor diet and other factors that, if left unchecked, can damage a number of important systems throughout the body. Your endocrine (hormone), central, immune, digestive, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems, to name the most common, are all threatened by chronic inflammation, which ultimately...

 Breakdown: New York EMTs forced to wait for hours with dead bodies before police arriveBy J. D. Heyes, August 1 2013
(NaturalNews) Don't look now, but New York City is doing its best imitation of Detroit, at least when it comes to emergency medical services.
The New York Daily News is reporting that the city's Emergency Medical Personnel - the EMTs and Paramedics who staff city ambulances - sometimes must wait hours for the NYPD to show up, leaving them stuck babysitting dead bodies, which in turn means they cannot respond to other emergency calls.
From the paper:
EMTs are required to stay with deceased...
 Join Natural News in supporting Vernon Hershberger, the raw milk farmer unjustly raided and arrested over raw milkBy Mike Adams, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Raw milk farmer Vernon Hershberger has been unjustly maligned by a tyrannical system of bad government. His family and farm were subjected to an armed raid by government goons who trampled all over his private property and accused him of committing "dairy crimes" by distributing raw milk to a small group of people who were members of a private buying club.
Hershberger, who has an Amish background, was then hauled into court where the state attempted to prosecute him and send him...

(NaturalNews) One of the most powerful cleansing and detoxifying "superfoods" known to man, chlorella is a fascinating single-celled algae variety that offers a plethora of unique benefits for human health and nutrition. And one such benefit, as illustrated in a 2008 study published in the Journal of Medicinal Food, is its ability to expel toxic cadmium from the body and prevent it from poisoning the liver and other vital organs.

 You want some bug juice with that? Insect-based dye revealed in Dannon yogurt productsBy Jonathan Benson, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Yogurt, fruit, and insect juice? This last ingredient might seem out of place, but it is precisely what global food giant Dannon is adding as a food coloring to many of its commercial yogurt products, unbeknownst to the majority of its customer base. And the non-profit consumer advocacy group Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) is calling on the company to immediately remove the ingredient from its product formulations in the interest of public safety.

 US government spending $500k to push HPV vaccine that keeps killing young womenBy Ethan A. Huff, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Amid all the budget cuts and sequestration measures being taken by the federal government these days, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has somehow procured more than half a million taxpayer dollars to spend on pushing more people to get vaccinated for human papillomavirus (HPV). As reported by CNSNews.com, NIH recently awarded $544,188 to the University of California (UC) school system to research new propaganda tactics that may help sway more mothers to have their underage daughters...
 U.S. welfare food shipped offshore in huge barrels to be sold on black market in developing nationsBy J. D. Heyes, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Waste, fraud, and abuse are the three things taxpayers hate more than the taxes themselves, because they stand for a blatant misuse of resources provided by coercion: Pay your taxes or else go to jail.
So it is beyond maddening when taxpayers learn that government-enforced charity, which is the base concept behind all welfare programs, is being exploited by the very people such programs were designed to "help."
A recent case in point involves rampant welfare fraud in New York...

 Even the IRS' own employees union opposes Obamacare for its membersBy J. D. Heyes, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Opponents of Obamacare have been warning Americans for years of the damage it will do to U.S. healthcare in general, the insurance industry and the economy at large. The president's supporters have always downplayed those warnings, and they include the nation's largest unions.
But as the date approaches when all of Obamacare's damaging provisions take effect, former supporters of the president and his healthcare "reform" law are now starting to break ranks. They, too, see the approaching...
 Mexican salsas, hot sauces found to contain concerning levels of leadBy Jonathan Benson, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) If you enjoy a little extra spice on those enchiladas or flavor with those tortilla chips, you may want to practice more caution when purchasing salsas and hot sauces originating from Mexico. A new study out of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) recently found that at least four popular Mexican brands of both hot sauce and salsa contain noticeably detectable levels of lead, a known neurotoxin, that in some cases exceed regulatory maximums for other foods.

People who repeatedly lose weight and gain it back may be at higher risk for metabolic syndrome and diabetes according to the Oslo Study.
The weight loss roller coaster is more than emotionally frustrating. It appears to set you up for disease and premature death.
A 28-year follow up of participants in the Oslo study revealed the following conclusion: Among elderly men the number of episodes or...
 Food and lifestyle: non-chemo treatments for colon cancerBy Antonia, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) I wrote recently about Dave the Raw Food Trucker and how his stage 1 colon cancer has subsided from what appears to be the result of an organic, raw food, vegan diet. Or probably more appropriately, the food that he stopped eating.
If that wasn't exciting enough, I want to share another healing story about a man that was at colon cancer stage 3. This man appeared on the Ricki Lake show to discuss his story.
Chris Wark was just 26 years old when he was diagnosed with one of the...
 Obama removes promise to 'protect whistleblowers' from propaganga website Change.govBy J. D. Heyes, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Before and after his first campaign for the White House, Barack Obama promised the American people that his administration would be the most open and transparent in the nation's history.
"My Administration is committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government," says a memo Obama sent to the heads of his executive departments and agencies. "We will work together to ensure the public trust and establish a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration...
 Use garlic to naturally repel mosquitoes and treat West Nile VirusBy PF Louis, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) From time to time over the past decade or so, a particular type of viral infection known as West Nile Virus (WNV) has made the news since it made its way into America in 1999. Mosquitoes are the carriers, from the infected birds they first bite, to the animals and humans they bite later.
Most birds are vectors, or carriers that don't get ill or die from the virus, except for crows. They are so easily, adversely affected from the virus that dead crows in a given area are used as early...
 Eight common diseases linked to vitamin D deficiencyBy Jonathan Benson, July 25 2013
(NaturalNews) The cure for some of the most common and debilitating health conditions today may be as elemental as simply correcting a nutrient deficiency that plagues millions of Westerners: Vitamin D deficiency. Here are eight common diseases that have been scientifically linked to a chronic lack of vitamin D:
1) Asthma. Though a definitive cause of asthma is still up for debate, recent science points to vitamin D, and particularly a lack thereof, as a major factor in its prevalence. Especially...
 Moderate and regular physical activity lowers the risk of deadly stroke by twenty percentBy John Phillip, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Stroke incidence continues to rise in western cultures, ranking as the third leading cause of death in the US this year. Cerebrovascular disorders, similar to heart disease, cancer and dementia, are largely preventable lifestyle diseases fueled by dietary indiscretions, environmental and household exposure to toxins, smoking and lack of physical activity. Strokes strike more than 800,000 people in the US each year, killing more than 150,000 and leading to permanent disability for many...
 New monstrous breeds of GMO tomato coming to a store near youBy J. D. Heyes, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) The first commercially available, genetically modified crop was the tomato, which first made its debut in the United States in 1994 but which disappeared soon after under a cloud of controversy. New, giant breeds of GM tomatoes; however, are set to make a comeback at a grocery store near you, but not without most of the same old health issues.
According to a report from PreventDisease.com, this early form of GM tomato failed to live up to expectations because the bioengineered modifications...
 Disease prevention and other health benefits of parsleyBy Sandeep Godiyal, July 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Dr. Harold Gunatillake, an affiliate of the Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons, asserts that the herb, parsley, has more to offer than being a mere colorful trimming on the delectable dishes most often served in restaurants. Beyond its almost negligible size and its tasty green dynamic flavor, parsley has plenty to offer in terms of health benefits and disease prevention.
Most popular types of parsleyTwo very well-known types of parsley are the curly parsley and the Italian...
 Consumer alert: Most common vitamins, including children's vitamins, found to contain GMOsBy Mike Adams, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) A Natural News investigation reveals that an alarmingly large number of multivitamins and individual nutrient vitamins are formulated with ingredients derived from genetically modified corn.
This is the "dirty little secret" of the vitamin industry, but it's not one the mainstream media will touch because they refuse to admit GMOs are a problem to begin with. Those in the know, however, realize that eating any ingredients derived from GMOs may expose them to the BT insecticide chemicals...
 Society's insanity plea: the real cause behind global mass poisoning and the downfall of modern civilizationBy Mike Adams, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) There are over five thousand species of mammals on planet Earth, but only one of them is insane. It also turns out there is only one species of mammal that intentionally poisons itself (and its children) by injecting toxic, neuro-damaging chemicals into most members of the species. That species is, of course, homo sapiens.
If you look around the planet these days, you see tens of thousands of species of mammals, birds, reptiles and even insects. Five things all these have in common...
 Obamacare call center employees not offered health care benefitsBy J. D. Heyes, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) News reports of late have declared that, despite it being passed nearly three years ago, Americans are "still confused" over Obamacare and its myriad of regulations, requirements and provisions.
Confused yes, but increasingly angry as well.
Why? Because as the time draws near for most of the law's remaining provisions to kick in, the roaches who created this monstrosity are scurrying for the darkness in a bid to distance themselves from the law they helped draft and pass. Their...
 Chemical weedkillers linked to double the rate of depression in farmersBy Lance Johnson, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) As chemical companies manufacture their own falsified studies on the safety of their weed killers, herbicides like Roundup are used liberally and without caution. The glyphosate weedkillers like Roundup are now dumped into the Earth at the rate of 900 million pounds annually, creating a toxic, chemical environment.
These chemicals not only destroy the beneficial bacteria in the human gut, weakening human immune systems, but they're also being tied to factors involved in depression...

(NaturalNews) The Pepsi-owned Naked Juice brand will soon be getting a labeling makeover following a lawsuit that challenged the processed food giant's indiscriminate and deceptive use of the word "natural." According to new reports, PepsiCo has not only agreed to pay out a $9 million settlement as part of the case, but has also relented from labeling its juice products as "all natural," pending further clarification by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the appropriate use of this widely...

(NaturalNews) Americans still reeling from the collapse of the U.S. housing market and who lost homes or tens of thousands of dollars in equity are going to be especially upset by news that one of the lenders at the heart of the collapse, Bank of America, is guilty of fleecing borrowers and rewarding foreclosures.
According to BoA employees-turned-whistleblowers who have signed sworn statements attesting to the validity of their accusations, "Bank of America employees regularly lied to homeowners...

 Colloidal silver is an antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral miracleBy PF Louis, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) Silver has been used since ancient Greek and Roman times as an antimicrobial, for preserving foods and liquids and medicinally. Then, in the early Twentieth Century, allopathic medicine monopolized all medical practice, favoring only synthetic pharmaceuticals.
As the medical monopoly's antibiotic wave began to lose favor among some, silver products in the form of liquid particle suspensions (colloidal) and ionic homemade solutions began re-emerging.

 Wikipedia increasingly being recognized as source of disinformation, propagandaBy Ethan A. Huff, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) A lawsuit filed against the Encinitas Union School District (EUSD) near San Diego, California, was recently dismissed after a judge ruled that the plaintiffs in the case had used a phony source of information for their argument: Wikipedia. In what appears to be a growing trend, an increasing number of people are now realizing that just because Wikipedia is popular and mainstream does not necessarily mean that it is accurate or reliable, especially as the answer to the question of who...
 How to turn deep breathing into a second heartBy Rich Stossel, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) With all the heart problems that people are experiencing today, learning that you can actually do something to create a second heart within your body sounds like a miracle or simply too good to be true. Of course science is always trying to create replacement organs using stem cells, cloning, cell regeneration technology and much more, but such "solutions" are nothing more than band aids, as is everything else that western medicine does to treat various health issues.
The media has...
 Four fast and effective natural remedies for headaches and migrainesBy J. D. Heyes, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) Headaches. They are day-killers. You can't concentrate at work and you can't get anything done at home. All you can do is suffer until it goes away.
More than 30 million Americans suffer from migraines - or one person in some 25 percent of U.S. households - and three out of four of them are women. But if you're not into ibuprofen, Tylenol, Bayer or any of the other multitudes of over-the-counter remedies for keeping headaches and migraines at bay - because you care about what you...
 MSNBC says life begins whenever parents decide it does, including years after childbirthBy J. D. Heyes, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) It's easy to think that the most outrageous things said by some of today's "intellectuals," some of whom pretend to be cable news program hosts, are merely for shock effect, but when they keep saying them you begin to realize their not kidding - they really believe what they're saying.
Take MSNBC's Melissa Harris-Perry, who recently donned a pair of tampons as earrings, in protest of a decision by the Texas Legislature earlier this month to confiscate any items that could be hurled...
 Wine allergy: What are the symptoms and common causes?By Jo Beck, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) It is well known that drinking wine has positive effects on health when taken in moderation. Wine contains antioxidants that protect cells against damage. But who knows about wine allergy and the effect that it can have on health? Whereas a true wine allergy is rare, it is not uncommon to experience intolerance-like symptoms such as rashes, diarrhea and vomiting (aside from drinking too much...). Different chemicals and ingredients in wine can cause a reaction. What are these reactions...
 Enemy of the state: Your cell phone is now a tracking device for NSA to hunt you downBy Jonathan Benson, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) News of the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA)'s covert spying activities on Americans has sent shockwaves throughout the nation, rattling what little rudiments of freedom and liberty still remain in this once great nation. But a new report by The Washington Post (WP) ventures even deeper down the rabbit hole of American police state surveillance, revealing that the NSA now possesses the power and proclivity to track your location via your cell phone, hunt you down with aerial drones...
 'Superfluids' like liquid helium seemingly defy laws of physics, baffling scientistsBy Ethan A. Huff, July 30 2013
(NaturalNews) Scientists have long been baffled by the fact that certain objects of matter appear to evade the physical laws of nature, existing and functioning to the beat of a different drum, if you will. At least as far as human understanding is concerned, so-called "superfluids" like liquid helium, for instance, do not seem to be affected by either gravity or surface tension, which makes them an anomaly in the realm of physical science.
Superfluids, in case you have never heard of them, possess...
 Article updated with new message from the Health RangerBy Mike Adams, July 29 2013
(NaturalNews) The article which originally appeared here has been removed because it is no longer aligned with the science-based investigative mission of Natural News.

He now runs the Natural News Forensic Food Lab, conducting world-class food science research and publishing scientific papers on food contaminants and nutritional analytics.

 MSNBC host says newborn infants don't count as 'alive' unless parents decide they do; infanticide is the new abortionBy Mike Adams, July 29 2013
(NaturalNews) Today Natural News denounces Melissa Harris-Perry, the latest talking head "death worshipper" to publicly imply that she supports the murder of living, breathing newborn children. According to Harris-Perry, life begins when the parents feel like life begins. And together with some twisted new "ethics" arguments from the radical left, this can include months or years after a child is born.
That's why I need to premise this article with a disclaimer: This article is not about abortion...
 California's largest health care insurer for small businesses drops out of Obamacare exchangeBy J. D. Heyes, July 29 2013

 The fattening of America - Is water fluoridation to blame?By Carolanne Wright, July 29 2013
(NaturalNews) As more information comes to light about fluoride poisoning across the country, connections between the chemical and weight gain are garnering attention. A known suppressor of the thyroid gland, fluoride is a major player in the rampant increase of obesity. But the toxicity of fluoride is subtle and can also manifest as creeping additional weight that is nearly impossible to shed. One aspect is certain: If we desire a slim and healthy body, getting a handle on fluoride exposure is crucial...
